I can understand on ebay that bidders can get out of hand and bid up coupons (I once sold a lot of 10 coupons for 6$! yikes!) But for a clipper who is selling their 'service' I don't understand justifying that it 'costs' 8c to clip X coupon, but 40c to clip Y coupon!
I drive out to Latrobe and get the Weekend Bulletin (the Latrobe Bulletin's Saturday edition) for 50c. My sister gets it delivered since she lives out that way - so I call her Saturday mornings when there are good coupons coming out and we compare SS inserts LOL
This week they didn't have the little GM insert - but I wasn't worried about that - I just wanted the 4$ Purina, the 5$ Benevia (for RA black friday), the 2$ Bic (for RA bf again), the 50c birds eye, and the free napkins LOL If I would have ordered 10 of each of those from a clipper I was looking at 12$+!! I bought 32 papers for 10$ - my mom wouldnt take any money for the 12 she picked me up that night because I got her free toilet paper (36 double rolls of Quilted Northern) at Rite Aid today LOL so I only paid for the 20 I drove out to get.
It was worth the 2+ hours it took me (1/2 hour each way and at least an hour to haul the kids in and out of GE and SnS and time spent looking for tearpads/blinkies :lol:) |
